By Jane Mlambo| National Constitutional Assembly (NCA) leader Professor Lovemore Madhuku has told Justice minister Ziyambi Ziyambi to delay constitutional amendments that entrench all the powers in the President saying the PLAD platform should be allowed to make its own proposals.

Madhuku said his party has set 2020 as the year to push electoral and economic reforms ahead of the 2023 harmonised elections.

“In 2020, we will make concrete all our proposed reforms in various aspects, particularly constitutional and electoral reforms and economic policy reforms.

“We will seek to ensure that all the constitutional and electoral reforms required for the 2023 general election are in place by end of 2020.

“We will seek to ensure that all arms of Government appreciate the role of POLAD. For example, we will expect the Minister of Justice to delay his proposed Constitutional amendments until POLAD has completed its proposals so that only one omnibus Constitutional Amendment Bill incorporating POLAD proposals that would have been accepted by Government is presented to Parliament,” said Madhuku.
